| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | Few kinds of evidence are more evocative tan human remains - whether mummified, fossilized, or simply preserved as askulls and skeletons in burial sites the world over. Graves are a planned disposal of the dead that can conjure up the very world our ancestors inhabited, while the method of burial sheds light on belief and ritual. In exceptional circumtances, the dead can remain virtually intact, and provide a mine of informations about their diet, health, genetic makeup and the cause of their death. Exploring fifty of the world's best documented sites of bodies and graves, we enter the past through fifty different doors, and find a mine of fascinating information. |
